Re: PXES thin client as a TFTP Server

Well, I manage to connect to the tftp on the local_tftp_thin_client, but whenever I try to tftp get a file from this local_tftp I receive a "Transfer timed out" error message. Tftp get command from a thin client to a fat box completes successfully. Do I have to configure anything in LOCAL_TFTPD_OPTIONS? Any other suggestions?

Thank you, Galina.

Yes, you need something in /tmp/tftpboot to serve. Just copy some file
there, and try to get it from another fat box using a tftp client.
netstat could also help you to determine if tftp is running.
